Is the GC Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U the adapter we’ve been waiting for since the Wii U’s release or does it leave you feeling a little detached? Read on to find out if our experience with it was plugged or bugged. Mayflash has come to the more traditionalist Wii U gamers’ rescue with their “GC Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U” that claims to allow you to use your trusty old GameCube controllers by fooling the Wiimote into thinking that it’s a Wii Classic Controller. Brawl that still benefit greatly from their use.

With the still new-ish Wii U continuing Nintendo’s tradition of backwards compatibility, it came as a disappointment to many that Nintendo didn’t offer any first-party solutions for using GameCube controllers (or the new Wii U Pro Controllers), particularly for games like Smash Bros. The transition from the GameCube to the Wii, though, with its sharp move from traditional controls to motion-based gaming left significantly more room for the continued use of the previous generation’s controllers/peripherals to the point even of the inclusion of GameCube controller ports on the original version of the Wii. As the cycle of game console succession continues through the years both systems and controllers/peripherals are usually replaced by demonstrably better iterations making the previous versions nostalgically obsolete.
